True Friend by: Ashley H.
I’ll be true forever I am your friend,
I’ll be with you until the end.
For some examples and facts,
I’ll be and do everything an ordinary friend lacks.
When you ‘re blue,
I’ll dislodge whatever’s choking you.
When you are sad and depressed,
I’ll help you plot revenge on the sorry person that made you that way and we’ll make him 10 times more stressed.
When you call me and I just can’t come,
I’ll come over later with some chocolate and maybe I’ll share some.
When you want to end this poem I’ll just say,
“Fine we weren’t friends anyway!
And when you ask me if I’m serious and is this the end,
I’ll just laugh and say, “No way! I’m glad I can call you my friend!”

Movie Review~ Pay It Forward
Eleven year-old Trevor McKinney lives in a working class section of Las Vegas with his mother, Arlene. Arlene wants to be a good mother to Trevor, and works two jobs to give him a better life.
When Trevor’s social studies teacher Eugene Simonet gives him an assignment- think of a way to change our world and put it into action- it stirs something in Trevor. He comes up with “Pay It Forward,” where each person does something for three other people that helps them turn their life around.
I think that this story in my opinion is inspiring. It has changed my outlook on life actually. I really believe that something big like Pay It Forward would very much help make our world a better place.
Love,
Kelsey
On the transition unit we went and watched a movie called The
Golden Compass. It was cheesy as crap, but other than that stuff it was an
alright movie. Then best part is when two polar bears fight
and the one rips the other polar bears' jaw off. Then he sucked the bone
marrow out of his mouth. Not really but it sounds pretty cool EH?

Video Game Review Need For Speed Most Wanted
On this game you start out the best racer and some people mess with your car.
Then you lose the race and you lose your car to a guy named Razer.
There are 15 racers you have to beat. You have to build cars up and you have to buy cars and sell cars you win cars too. You have to build bounty and earn money by racing. I think it is the best game I’ve played in a long time it's real fun.
By MaTT
It is for a game boy advance, and it is a turn based strategy game. Your kingdom falls to a once ally kingdom named Grado. You start the game as Erika, the princess of Renais. Throughout the game, you can recruit new units and promote others to a higher class making them a lot stronger. On chapter 9, you can choose to travel with Erika or her twin brother Ephraim. The game is over on chapter 22, but you can unlock a lot more things when you beat the game. There are many secrets in the game, some will happen when you build a support conversation. And if you need any tips here are a few, watch all videos, collect a lot of iron weapons, and if you get to a level that has a coliseum use it with caution.
By Kasey R
This book is about a vampire named Edward and a girl named Bella. The girl wants to become a vampire so bad she always asks Edward to make her a vampire, but he always says no. The girl Bella is being chased by a vampire named Victoria. Victoria wants to kill Bella, because Bella’s boyfriend, Edward, killed Victoria’s husband James. Edward teams up with his enemy, Jacob so he can have a chance at killing Victoria, and her clan of newborns to save Bella. I though the book was great. I would give it 5/5 stars.

MOVIE REVIEW
The best movie that I like would probably be BEDAZZLED. It is about this guy that is a geek or a nerd at first. So it starts out at work when he wants to hang out with his friends, and his so called friends are trying to blow him off, because they don’t like him, so they get to blow him off. Later that night they see him come to the bar and they try to hide so he can’t see them, but he does see them. So he goes over there to hang out with them and he sees the women of his life and they don’t think that he can go over to her and talk to her, but he proved them wrong by going over there to talk to her. He didn’t do a good job talking to her so he turns around and sees that his so called friends are laughing at him. He turns back around again to talk to her, but he sees that she left and he feels stupid by making a fool of himself. He just stands there by the bar and this lady hits a pool ball and the white ball goes flying off the table down the stairs and keeps rolling till it hits his foot. Then the lady tells him to come to her to give the ball back to her and he finds out later that she is the devil and she said “You can have 7 wishes so choose them well.” He did and then at the last wish he gave it up so the devil couldn’t have his soul and he lives a normal and not a geeky life and he lives happily ever after with a different girl that he likes.

TAKING CARE OF HORSES
To take care of horses you have to be willing to work very hard for about four, five hours at a time (Depending on how many horses you have). You have to keep them well groomed, shoed, caught up on their vitamins, and you also have to do blood work. Horses need exercise just like me and they need space. They cannot be cooped up all the time. Taking care of ten horses for me is hard work, but if I don’t do it I don’t eat. I am proud of my horses they are good horses and most of them have won trophies, that is why I work so hard to take care of my horses.
After the death of her father, a thirteen-year-old uses bulimia as a way to avoid her mother's and ten year- old sisters pain, as well as her own. Then she meets a girl from school who she thinks is absolutely perfect in every way. She and her friend start going to eating disorder meetings, and they start hanging out.

Book Review: Speak By: Laurie Anderson
Being the first novel by this author, it seems like it has more experience.
The story plot is amazing. You can really understand what the characters are feeling.
You have to get involved in the book to get the big picture , I think everyone should read this.
It really could give you a better perspective on how you will see things. I give it five stars.

Music Review
picture from www.daeva.de
London After Midnight, a hardcore underground Goth/industrial band. I recommend this band to whoever is into heavy dark stuff or even if you just like music. Some other bands I recommend are Ego Likeness, The Last Dance, 69 Eyes, Anglespit and Dope Stars Inc. if you’re into the Goth scene …. Or just straight up like crazy dark stuff. I personally love this band as one of my favorites. Some would say its just depressing crap, but that’s just because they’ve never even given it a chance.

My opinion on Easy-E
What do little children think when they hear foul language in most song lyrics? I think that most children grow up thinking that sex, drugs and violence is okay, because the music most teens listen to be talking about it all. What I think about Easy E’s music is that it should have been edited and some of the music should have never been put out on the radio. Take for instance the song “I Was Getting Some,” that song should have never been published out into the radio for little children, first of all my reason is because it is too sexual and is not at all appropriate for teens to listen to. Most of his Music influences teens to go out and party and have sex. Most teens through ninth grade and up think that it’s perfectly fine. Another thing is that along with Easy- E is too-short, most of these rap singers are giving messages out to young girls that they should look like a (coke bottle) no lie, in most male rap songs they are usually talking about how fine or sexy someone is that is walking down the street. My opinion on Easy E is that his music should not ever be put on the radio and some of his lyrics should not even be produced.

Jacob Bella Edward
DO YOU LIKE VAMPIRES
If you guys are in to the books Twilight, New Moon and Eclipse well then look up the author's web site under her name {Stephenie Meyer.com}. There is a whole chapter from Edward's point of view. Starting with the first day he met Bella. Talk going around says she is writing books on Edward's point a view. That’s hot if I already like the way Bella’s point of view is I know I will love Edward's.
I’m reading Eclipse right now and I’m loving it. There’s more romance taking place in this book. It has me at the edge of my seat.
Also they're making a movie of all three of the books. The Guy actor is pretty hot girls. The action in the movie is pretty bloody and intense boys.
If you haven’t read these books yet get a hold of them as soon as you can I promise you love it or hate. LOL!

Five Ancestors
This particular book in the series is about Fu, the 12 year old overly aggressive “tiger”. In this book Fu’s temple, where he is trained at is destroyed. He and his four brothers must uncover their past as well as their lost brother Ying’s in order to bring peace back to Cangzhen temple as well as restore it to its original beauty. This book excited me when I picked up the second in the second book in the series “Monkey”. I would advise anyone to read this book if they are interested in a good book with a lot of kung fu. By Brendon.
I am going to write about a video game that I have been playing lately called Madden 2008. This game is the best football game so far, it has everything from changing formations to calling zone patterns. If you really don’t know much about football you probably have no idea what I just said, but if you do then you know that that’s pretty realistic. This game is my favorite game that I have ever played for ps2. I am the biggest video game football fan. I get the new game for it every year. I don’t really play it as much as I used to. Now I just play it here and there.

Some people think they're crazy, but I love them because I love the words and I can sometimes relate to what they are saying. I would give them a 5 stars just because they are my favorite band. You should listen to them……………..They ROCK!!!!!!

Title: Can’t Help But Wait
Artist: Trey Songz
I like this song because it reminds me of all the bad relationships people have. What makes me feel this way is simple. I know someone who has been in a situation that they were not being shown respect. Their friend was trying to tell them that they were not making a good choice. That is what this song is about and that is why I chose this song as my song.

I need some help on my problem. My problem is when my sisters and I are home alone my neighbors call the cops when we are outside. And when we take my dog out they call animal control and say that my dog bit them in the leg. My mom does not know what to do. And also my dog is new and she has never bitten anybody. So please help me out and if you help me out thank you.

Halo 3?
Halo 3, the number one online game for x-box 360 has shocked the world. When Halo 2 came out I started playing online, and I don’t mean just online, I mean 16 player halo parties at my house every other weekend. I love Halo; I preordered it so I could not have to wake up in the middle of the night to go and get me a copy, but at the time when it first came out, you couldn’t find a copy and if you did you were really lucky. When the x-360 came out people were buying and selling them on eBay for several thousand dollars. The highest I have seen them get up to is $5,000. Don’t ask me why people would pay that just to have a game system. I think that if you need a new game and you like 1st person shooters then any of the Halo’s can be of assistance preferably Halo 3.
Movie Reviews
The name of this movie is Tupac’s Resurrection, the reason for this because it tells about
Tupac’s life. Tupac, when he was growing up in the ghetto, didn’t have a lot of money.
He was partying a lot and getting in to trouble and getting involved in gangs / drugs. And he started rapping at the age of 13 and up trying to get him and his family successful too.
But now Tupac has passed away. At first Tupac faked his death but in 1996 he was shot
by who I think was Biggie.

The Watson Coat of Arms
Watson origins Are English and Scottish. The background I belong to is the English side. Some of the Watson family came over with the Mayflower and settled in Virginia in 1620. The family name Watson is one of the most notable of the ancient Anglo/Saxon race. This founding race of England, a fair skinned people led by the Saxon General/Commanders Hengist and Horsa, settled in Kent from about the year 400 A.D. The Angles, on the other hand, occupied the eastern coast. This is a small part of my ancestory.

The voting of the new President will begin soon, this November. My choice for President would be Obama, he would be a good president to go for, he isn’t forceful, he seems to be a good family man, and knows what he is talking about. He would be a good example to those around him. So vote for Obama.
Movie review Too Fast Too Furious
Too Fast Too Furious is a cool movie, because it’s about racing. I like movies like this, because it has cool cars. They are street racers, they are my favorite kind of cars. The movie takes place in Tokyo. They race in any place that they can find. I also like the movie, because it has some fine Japanese girls in it.

Need for Speed
Carbon
Need for Speed Carbon is a racing game. It is supposed to be the game about the movie Need for Speed Tokyo Drift. At the starting of the game you can pick from three different types of cars muscle, which is either a 69 or 78-Camaro SS, exotic which is a 2006 Evo, and then there’s tuner, which is a 2007 Mazda-rx8. Which is the fastest out of those three and takes the longest to sup up. In the game you have to take over three other peoples turfs. There are about five or six different kinds of races. There are drifts, circuits, speed traps, and sprints. But I’m just saying you should go out and buy it if you don’t already have it. By Nick H.
Dear Artec,
Seriously people come on stop all the secret relationships it’s so stupid. It’s really not worth your time or effort, I mean what’s the point? You’re not allowed to talk to people outside of here anyways. You guys are supposed to be working on your treatment and having relationships at Artec is a big waste of time. If you’re going to date someone don’t let it be someone that goes here.

TAKING CARE OF HORSES
To take care of horses you have to be willing to work very hard for about four, five hours at a time (Depending on how many horses you have). You have to keep them well groomed, shoed, caught up on their vitamins, and you also have to do blood work. Horses need exercise just like me and they need space. They cannot be cooped up all the time. Taking care of ten horses for me is hard work, but if I don’t do it I don’t eat. I am proud of my horses they are good horses and most of them have won trophies, that is why I work so hard to take care of my horses.

I know someone who has been in a situation that they were not being shown respect. Their friend was trying to tell them that they were not making a good choice. That is what this song is about and that is why I chose this song as my song.

Dear Artec
I need some help on my problem. My problem is when my sisters and I are home alone my neighbors call the cops when we are outside. And when we take my dog out they call animal control and say that my dog bit them in the leg. My mom does not know what to do. And also my dog is new and she has never bitten anybody. So please help me out and if you help me out thank you.

This is Liz Shelton’s book and if you see it I would really appreciate it if you would return it to her. The title is Five Ancestors (Tiger). By Brendon
Halo 3?
Halo 3, the number one online game for x-box 360 has shocked the world. When Halo 2 came out I started playing online, and I don’t mean just online, I mean 16 player halo parties at my house every other weekend. I love Halo; I preordered it so I could not have to wake up in the middle of the night to go and get me a copy, but at the time when it first came out, you couldn’t find a copy and if you did you were really lucky. When the x-360 came out people were buying and selling them on eBay for several thousand dollars. The highest I have seen them get up to is $5,000. Don’t ask me why people would pay that just to have a game system. I think that if you need a new game and you like 1st person shooters then any of the Halo’s can be of assistance preferably Halo 3.
Movie Reviews
The name of this movie is Tupac’s Resurrection, the reason for this because it tells about
Tupac’s life. Tupac, when he was growing up in the ghetto, didn’t have a lot of money.
He was partying a lot and getting in to trouble and getting involved in gangs / drugs. And he started rapping at the age of 13 and up trying to get him and his family successful too.
But now Tupac has passed away. At first Tupac faked his death but in 1996 he was shot
by who I think was Biggie.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows**
This book was a great way to wrap up the whole ‘Harry Potter’ plot. What needed to finally happen, happened. I was a little surprised at some parts, but overall it was very well planned and written. J.K. Rowling did a great job at finalizing the sequels. Plus, Ron and Hermoine were going to hook up all along. By: Jordan

The Watson Coat of Arms
Watson origins Are English and Scottish. The background I belong to is the English side. Some of the Watson family came over with the Mayflower and settled in Virginia in 1620. The family name Watson is one of the most notable of the ancient Anglo/Saxon race. This founding race of England, a fair skinned people led by the Saxon General/Commanders Hengist and Horsa, settled in Kent from about the year 400 A.D. The Angles, on the other hand, occupied the eastern coast. This is a small part of my ancestory.

The voting of the new President will begin soon, this November. My choice for President would be Obama, he would be a good president to go for, he isn’t forceful, he seems to be a good family man, and knows what he is talking about. He would be a good example to those around him. So vote for Obama.
Movie review Too Fast Too Furious
Too Fast Too Furious is a cool movie, because it’s about racing. I like movies like this, because it has cool cars. They are street racers, they are my favorite kind of cars. The movie takes place in Tokyo. They race in any place that they can find. I also like the movie, because it has some fine Japanese girls in it.

Need for Speed
Carbon
Need for Speed Carbon is a racing game. It is supposed to be the game about the movie Need for Speed Tokyo Drift. At the starting of the game you can pick from three different types of cars muscle, which is either a 69 or 78-Camaro SS, exotic which is a 2006 Evo, and then there’s tuner, which is a 2007 Mazda-rx8. Which is the fastest out of those three and takes the longest to sup up. In the game you have to take over three other peoples turfs. There are about five or six different kinds of races. There are drifts, circuits, speed traps, and sprints. But I’m just saying you should go out and buy it if you don’t already have it. By Nick H.
Dear Artec,
Seriously people come on stop all the secret relationships it’s so stupid. It’s really not worth your time or effort, I mean what’s the point? You’re not allowed to talk to people outside of here anyways. You guys are supposed to be working on your treatment and having relationships at Artec is a big waste of time. If you’re going to date someone don’t let it be someone that goes here.
